This study presents a novel two-staged surgical approach for complex knee dislocations, involving urgent reduction and delayed bicruciate reconstruction. This method achieved significant functional recovery and joint mobility, offering a new option for managing these challenging injuries.
Area of Science:
- Orthopedic Surgery
- Knee Biomechanics
- Trauma Management
Background:
- Postero-lateral knee dislocations are rare and complex injuries.
- Limited established surgical protocols exist for managing these severe knee instabilities.
- Bicruciate ligament reconstruction is challenging and less documented in staged approaches.
